Man City is 7-1-1 (22 points) against the top half of the table.Everton is 5-3-1 (18)Arsenal is 5-2-2 (17)Chelsea is 4-3-2 (15)Newcastle is 3-2-4 (11)Man United is 2-3-4 (9)Tottenham is 2-3-4 (9)Southampton is 2-3-4 (9)Liverpool is 2-2-5 (8)Hull is 2-0-7 (6)

But Liverpool is the only team not to lose to a bottom ten team. The only dropped points was a draw against Swansea.Arsenal, Chelsea, Man United, and Tottenham all have a single loss and a draw against the bottom ten.

I quote desertgeek from the last EPL thread:

If you look at road games, here's the tough ones left for each of the top teams (presented in order of how I pulled them up)

So Man City still has to visit 6 of the current top 8 teams. Only Sunderland has more visits to top 8 teams still to come at 7, with 2 other teams tied with Citeh. Conversely, no team has as few such games left as Liverpool does. Everyone else has at least 2 of the 8 to visit.

Perversely, the fixture list has done City a huge favor. If they had visited the other top teams in the first half of the season, they likely would have lost to many of them. But now they get to visit them just as their away form is starting to come right.

I would actually prefer to see Liverpool win the league this year than City, and I never thought I would say that.
